Jason Isaacs correctly pointed out that friendships were strained during Season 3 of “The White Lotus“, and it indeed turned out to be true. One such friendship that disintegrated was between composer Cristóbal Tapia de Veer and showrunner Mike White. In a conversation with the New York Times, Tapia de Veer revealed he wouldn’t be involved in Season 4. And much like many others, he expressed dissatisfaction with the season 3 theme song.
Taipa de Veer compared working with Mike White to managing a demanding drag performer like Albin from the play “La Cage Aux Folles” (or Nathan Lane’s character in “The Birdcage” for Americans). He explained that Albin is the star, while Renato is the producer who ensures things run smoothly because Albin can be quite temperamental. De Veer stated that the show felt very much like this dynamic. De Veer and White initially disagreed on the tone of the music from the start. According to De Veer, White wasn’t fond of the first theme, but he eventually came around to using it. De Veer admitted that maybe he was being difficult at times, and certainly Mike White felt that way because De Veer didn’t always deliver what White wanted. However, De Veer pointed out that what he provided did indeed result in Emmy awards and widespread acclaim.
Regarding the theme of season 3 and the absence of “ooh-loo-loos,” Taipa de Veer has uploaded the extended version of the opening sequence on his YouTube channel, which includes the signature “White Lotus” melody. He mentioned that he contacted the producer suggesting it would be fantastic to eventually share the longer version with the “ooh-loo-loo-loos,” as fans might react explosively upon discovering it was originally intended. However, Mike edited that part out.
